Q & A
Why is hair and makeup your career?
Ever since I was a little girl I was passionate about beauty, makeup, hair… I would paint all my dolls faces and cut their hair. It was always something natural for me but as I grew up I ended up working in many fields without feeling satisfied about what I was doing. After taking sometime of work after having my little girl I decided it was time to pursue my dream career… something I was good at and enjoyed more than anything! I went to an amazing school and got my certification. They say if you love what you do you'll never work a day in your life, thats exactly how I feel about my career. I love every minute of it and love making people happy with what I do.
What is it about working with brides/weddings you enjoy?
There's always so much love in the air! It's such an exciting, fun day for them, getting to be a part of it is always so amazing! I'm also a big conversationalist and having someone sit in my chair always means I get the chance to learn all about them and hear some of their awesome stories!
What is your favorite style to do?
For makeup, anything I can get a little creative and edgy with. I'm all about fun colours, drama and boldness. For hair, I love getting to create up-do's, from the clean and chic to the messy and intricate, it's so hard to choose just one!
What inspires you?
Living in such a vast community of multicultural people, there's inspiration around every corner. From all the different people and styles, to the gorgeous nature we are surrounded with, my mind is constantly coming up with new ideas, and any chance I get, I enjoy watching other artist work their craft. There's always so much more to be learned!
